Super simple.

Like I said, the main benefits of the Chase cards can be described in less than a minute, the Amex benefits need an hour so you can outline the specifics.

Also, you should look into the Capital One Savor (4% cash back on dining and entertainment) and Uber Visa (4% cash back on dining, 3% cashback on travel)
